My jewelry doesn’t fit

[waffle]

No matter how many pieces I have, I’m never happy. Perhaps it’s because I gained weight and I can’t wear most of it. I’m working with a dietician and I lost a few but I have suck a long way to go. I try on my 2 favorite rings every day and they go up to my knuckle. I’m going to have to lose 50 more pounds for them to fit. Has this happened to anyone else? I feel like crying. They are not adjustable.

Normal! Hands change over the years.

Can they be resized?

My favorite one can’t because it’s an eternity sapphire band. The other one can

Yes this happened to me, I actually went to a pawn shop and bought a ring that fit. Maybe that’s an option, get a ring that isn’t too expensive and fits you know and hold on to your current rings until you decide you will lose weight or you could always sell them down the line. Don’t make any hasty decisions. Maybe the sapphire eternity can be a thumb or pinky ring for the time being.

So… my goldsmith showed me an eternity band he sized up. It might be possible if you found someone with extreme skill!

But I hear y’a. Still depressing.

i have to have winter and summer rings now and rings that fit 20 years ago had to be resized
as my mother got elderly she had to have her rings sized down so i had to have all her rings i inherited sized up
pre PS my rings i purchesed down the mall had to all be made a really large size, but they also said those bigger sizes are not un-normal

is trying on your favourite rings every day an encouragment or is it just making you sad ?
maybe just try on once a week ?

this is why i will never own a full eternity type ring, or get anything with too much detail on the band as i always want to be able to resize a ring

meanwhile i have wardrobes full of clothes that dont fit

I had my old rings resized to fit as I grew older and bigger in size.

Same with clothes - just get bigger ones or have them made bigger.

Maybe it’s making me sad. Maybe only once a month. Thank you.

Diamonds will go flying everywhere. It’s all around and very intricate. I sized it tonight and it’s a size 6.

That is pretty.

Change is hard, but it is normal and constant. When my clothes stopped fitting they made me sad until I got rid of them.

Maybe you need a new ring!

(Actually I just packed up my old clothes so they weren’t staring at me.)

They just don’t make them like they used to. This is over 12 years old.

I also gained around 80 pounds due to health issues so we are working in it. It will be a slow process I hope to wear the ring again. Meanwhile I guess I have this for a night on the town

I love it!

What’s your budget for health like? I hired a personal trainer when I wanted to make some changes. Best thing I ever did. I hope your health is doing ok.

Thank you so much. My budget is really small. I am in too much pain to exercise yet, but I’m working with a dietician. I had a thyroidectomy due to thyroid cancer and I’m menopausal at the same time. Brutal.

Does anyone else’s engagement ring leave an indention on their finger? Most of the time it feels comfortable, but sometimes it feels pretty tight. Also, does anyone else’s wedding band feel way different than their engagement ring even though they’re supposed to be a matching set? I’ve tried my wedding band on a few times and with both rings on my fingers it’s really tight but with just one of them it feels fine. I’ve gotten it sized up a quarter of a size because of that (I want to be able to wear both rings at the same time after the wedding and still be comfortable) but I think I might have to get them sized up again. I just don’t want to spend too much money, give up my rings to get it done, or damage my rings by sizing too much. Advice please?!!!

Yes. My grandmother gave me a band—platinum eternity—that her dead son gave her. He died in a car crash. So sad. So special that she gave it to me.

I gained so much weight after getting pregnant and quitting smoking…terrible but true. Special needs kids…life was tough…and they came first. 10 years later, it was my time,and I lost the weight. Life is long and focus changes. Don’t beat yourself up.
